[htdig] RE: No matches 3.2.0b4

[Abbie Greene]

I just did a very simple test.  I created a test index directory, and moved all the old databases to another area, and ran rundig.  The databases are searchable for the one page I threw in.  the only difference is that I ran rundig as root instead of my username.  Please tell me that this might not be the problem with the huge databases I created last week..or if it is, if there is some other way around this problem.  The permissions for all databases were set to a+r.   Thanks in advance!   Abbie   ////////////////////////////////////////// Previous email   Help!  I just got done indexing a huge list of files …well over 26000, totaling more than 3G  The databases created total 2.3G.  Finally after a week of running it’s finally stopped and all looks good. I tried to do some searches this morning and it is finding no matches (ahhh).  I’ve had htdig working before on a smaller set of files.  I ran rundig to index these files.  The only changes I made to the htdig.conf file were 1) change the start_url, 2) change excerpt size, 3) change max file size 4) added  start/end highlighting.  I’m using the default htdig search html as well, with no restrict or exclude variables. (they are set to “”).  Any help would truly be appreciated.   One last thing…I’ve found documentation for indexing with v 3.1.* but I can’t find too much with 3.2.0b4 … I have found that you don’t have to run htmerge after you run htdig, is that correct?  Just wondering the sequence to run … (htdig, htpurge…etc) when I don’t want to index from scratch…as a week is quite along time to run.   Thanks!   Abbie
